Intel and Marriott Vacations win top places in Legal Department rankings

Intel, Marriott, the Wikimedia Foundation and Office Depot are the four winners of the 2015 'Best Legal Departments' awards, from ALM, the publishers of Corporate Counsel.

The 281-lawyer team at Intel is praised for its 'use of cutting-edge technology every day'. The 22 lawyers at Marriott Vacations Worldwide are congratulated for being 'being friendly, helpful, caring and collaborative'. The Office Depot legal team largely won its place because of 'the masterful way its lawyers managed the integration of two huge companies (OfficeMax and Office Depot), creating a $17 billion corporation'. 

Diversity

The six lawyers at Wikimedia are praised for being a 'tight-knit team that is, in many ways, the model of gender, ethnic and experiential diversity that many in-house departments aspire to'. The prizes are for US legal departments. Source: MarketWatch
